Engine, Performance and Top Speed

The Aston Martin Vantage is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 (3,982cc), sourced from Mercedes-AMG but heavily reworked by Aston Martin with larger turbochargers, revised camshafts and optimised cooling. The result is 656 bhp at 6,000 rpm and a mighty 800 Nm of torque, driving the rear wheels through an 8-speed ZF automatic with a shortened final drive for sharper acceleration.

The numbers are supercar-serious: 0–100 kmph in 3.4 seconds and an Aston Martin Vantage top speed of 325 kmph (electronically limited). But the character is what defines it. This is a rear-wheel-drive car with enormous torque and deliberately playful balance, engaging, a little challenging, and endlessly rewarding when you get it right. The exhaust note is theatrical, the steering communicative, and the chassis alive in a way the more clinical rivals aren't.

The Aston Martin Vantage S pushes power to 680 hp with recalibrated engine mapping, retuned adaptive dampers and revised gearbox mounts sharper throttle response and cornering poise, without losing the standard car's road manners. Its top speed rises to 202 mph (325 kmph).

Note for context: The earlier Aston Martin V12 Vantage, a 690 hp, 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 collector's special, was discontinued in 2018 and again after a limited 2022 run, making the current car V8-only. Those V12 cars remain highly sought-after in the used market.

The low 94 mm Aston Martin Vantage ground clearance is pure sports-car territory, though reviewers note it clears typical speed breakers surprisingly well even without a front-axle lift. The Aston Martin Vantage seating capacity is two this is a strict two-seater built around the driver, with a modest boot for a weekend's soft luggage.

Interior, Features and Colours

Interior: The Aston Martin Vantage interior was completely redesigned for the current car, and it's a huge step up. The cabin blends hand-stitched Bridge of Weir leather with a driver-focused cockpit, a 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 10.25-inch digital driver's display, dual-zone climate control, 8-way powered and heated seats, and a spectacular 1,170W 15-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system. Physical switchgear returns for key controls a deliberate, welcome move in a driver's car.

Features: Safety and assistance are comprehensive for the segment: a full suite of ADAS features, multiple airbags, electronic stability control and an electronic parking brake. Build quality and material richness are exactly what a car at this price should deliver.

Aston Martin Vantage colours: The palette is vast, spanning classics and statement shades including Jet Black, Aston Martin Vantage black finishes like Onyx Black and Satin Onyx Black, plus Xenon Grey, Magnetic Silver, China Grey, Ion Blue, Divine Red, Hyper Red and Zenith White. Through Q by Aston Martin, virtually any colour, finish or two-tone combination is possible, so no two Vantages need ever look alike.

Aston Martin Vantage Safety

The Vantage comes with a full suite of ADAS features, multiple airbags, electronic stability control, dynamic torque vectoring and an electronic parking brake as standard. Being a low-volume, hand-built luxury sports car, it has not been crash-tested by any NCAP body, as is typical for cars in this segment and price bracket. Its safety case rests on its structural engineering, braking (carbon-ceramic optional) and comprehensive electronic aids rather than a published star rating.
